"The moment we cease to hold each other, the moment we break faith with one another, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out." - James Baldwin in his essay "Nothing Personal"

"You call people what people ask you to call them." - Andrea Roberts @FreeBlackTX placesjournal.org/article/mappin…

@infrarrealistas "For those who couldn’t apply for scholarships because of their “legal” status. It’s for those who wrote poems on their Tumblr. It is for our ancestors who fought for us to be here."

@infrarrealistas I love this from their website: "IR is for... the queer kids who were protected by Naruto-loving girls in middle school. For those who dropped out of their MFAs. For those whose parents dropped out of elementary school so they could help their family pay the bills..."

A new poem—titled "Backwards, Now"—is out! Thx to Infrarrealista Review (@infrarrealistas)! IR is such an amazing journal, dedicated to publishing underrepresented Texan voices, with a non-exclusive focus on Latinx writers. So thankful for all they do. infrarrealistas.org/backwards-now/

@aliner which book? :)

Remember when I was 10 and you gave me that book by Isaac Asimov that freaked me out and so we went online and asked Cleverbot all that stuff? The things we studied then prepared me to resist the AI-heads of now. - Son who is home from college as he baked some great biscuits
